A teacher of a government school in Neemrana was held by alwar police after many girl students alleged that he touched them inappropriately and demanded sexual favours for clearing them in examinations.
During the inspection by block education officer, many girls of the school complained that the teacher used to touch them inappropriately and was also pressuring them to make physical relations else he will fail them in exams.
The education department alerted the police, and a case under relevant sections of the IPC and the POCSO Act was registered against the accused teacher.
Charges under the SC/ST Atrocities (Prevention) Act have also been invoked against him since some students belong to the SC/St category.
